Maxspeed Springs

[jonlong]

I'm thinking about buying Maxspeed Springs. For those of you that have them or know much about them:

What is the ride like?
How much will they lower (I've heard from 1.3" to 2.0")?
Are they good quality?

Also, if you have pics (especially w/ 16" wheels) I would really appreciate it.

link? i have never heard of these

[jonlong]

they're an ebay brand, but I've heard that they are re-named H&R springs

[anarchistchiken]

If they cost less than H&R springs and are actually the same thing, they're used. More likely they're just cheap knockoffs. I like ebay intakes just fine, but putting a cheap knockoff between me and a nasty crash if they fail is another thing entirely. If you want cheap springs, look for a good deal on Tein h- or s-techs or buy some Goldline springs

i agree here......

i can do a decent deal on eibachs, intrax, h&r or goldlines NEW if you are interested

Go for the goldlines! I love them

goldline has raised thier pricing as well, and may do so again. the time to buy is now

I had the maxspeed on my pro 5 when I had it and on my 2002 maxima as well.. they are exceptional. The ride for the 1.5 feels the same as the eibachs. I had stock struts on for nearly a year and a half and it was daily driven and it rode like a champ. buy them if you can get them. And no you wont end up crashing your ride because of them. =]
I am hoping they make them for my mazda 6 s as I would get them for it asap.

espelir all the way!

[jonlong]

Thanks for all the feedback guys. But the reason I am not looking at the other brands right now is because I might be able to get the Maxspeed's for about $50, whereas I'd spend $150-$250 for any other set of springs.

How much? I want something with close to a 2" drop, since I plan on using the stock 16" wheels, and that doesn't have a harsh ride. I will also be using stock struts until I can find a really good deal on Tokico Blue's.

i have them on my p5, i got them because they give a good drop ~2", i'll try to take pictures and post them tonight for you. Plus, the price is great,and i also heard that they were made by h&r

[THEGOLDPRO]

i have them as well, have had them on the car for about 2 years, awesome springs, real good quality, and they feel great.
